MM is currently closed, so posting this here since not asking for any money. Mods - apologies if not allowed!

I'm doing a house clearout as am moving soon and seem to have a box of cables. Mostly old things like SCART, parallel cables, some AV cables (RGB), power cables etc. Also have a 9200SE Radeon that someone on these forums had very kindly given me when I needed it and a PCI ADSL card. Some phone cables too and a USB multi-port. May be more as I go through the box.

About to throw them in the trash so thought i'd see first in case anyone here wanted anything? No cost, but would appreciate it if the postage was refunded :)
 
Good luck. I've tried this before and ended up chucking them in the bin. Still nice of you to think of us though :)
 
Nice gesture that it is, you're probably best just binning it or giving it to a charity shop. Most folks on here probably already have boxes of their own like you describe!
 
Thanks all. Sounds like bin it is. Doubt even charity shops would be interested - found some phone charges for the slide type samsung phones, more parrallel cables and even a ps/2 connector for a mouse :D

Already chucked a large amount of game CDs away so this isn't quite as hard :)
 
I had a similar box of maybe 500 various comp bit and peices - cables, adaptors, splitters etc. No single item probably worth more that £5. Did a car boot with each cable at 50p and walked away with £80 and a nearly empty box.
 
I also recommend charity shop if you can't sell them.
I help out at one & any time someone pops in wondering if we'd take cables, it's an instant "Yes please!".
They always come in handy for someone.

Interested in the Radeon 9200, is it pcie and does it come with the original svideo cable? (these cables are not standard)

I think it's PCI, but not sure and don't remember the difference in how they look tbh. Here's a pic. I do have an svideo, but not sure if original or not. I basically needed a basic GFX card to get me by whilst old ones were on RMA and a kindly soul from these forums met me and handed it to me. It was years ago, so don't remember if there was anything else with it.

Thanks all re. charity shops. Didn't think they'd be interested, but there are a couple nearby enough so will pop in tomorrow to see if they want any. Can find a bin close enough hopefully in case the answer is no :) Not interested in selling them - way too much hassle for pretty little gain.
 
That pic isn't working for me.

I don't have AGP but I'll happily take it if it's pcie or pci, I'm in need of a card that has TV out on it.
 
Oh I give up on using google photos. Impossible to share a picture. Edit - hopefully this works (again) -

I'm relatively certain it's PCI and not PCI-E or AGP. If it works for you, happy to send it along with the cable. Just trust me the details. Will pack it as securely as I can given no box or anything.
